Second-Hand Furniture was formed 2003. The band was first named Galaxy Gramophone, but changed the name to Second-Hand Furniture when the singer Miralda Madar Johansson joined the band and when they’d found their sound. After the first cd-r (self titled, 2003, 100 copies)was given away for free to indiepop-lovers, the first cd-r was later released by Yellow Mica Recordings, and the second cd-r “Nice Try, Sunshine EP” was released a few months later at Smashing Time Rec. In 2004 Second-Hand Furniture reached its peak with a handful of gigs around Sweden and a vinyl release at Fabulous Friends Records, Everything Will Fall EP 7’’ (sold out!). In 2005 the guitarist Tobias Muller left the band, and was replaced by Petter Utbult(aka Mr.Pedro). The band did only two more gigs, and the gig in Gothenburg the 7th of July became their last performance as a band. They recorded two unreleased songs during the summer of 2005 (“Extreme Rightwing-Soldiers” and “There’s Nothing To Celebrate”) No official split has been announced from the band, but since 2005 the band members went to London, Argentina and the U.S, which made it difficult to maintain the creativity without rehearsing and seeing each other.
